Former Us President Bill Clinton stated in a meeting recently that there is unquestionable evidence of humanity's influence on the environment,which will soon cause a number of great changes to the global climate.Because of carbon dioxide emissons（二氧化碳排放）caused by power plants,cars and other fossil fuel-burning machinery,Clinton said,the globe is heating up ,and we are already seeing the results of our industrialism.

But other say slow warming over 100-year period is not enough to prove there is a serious warming of the globe ,nor that human industrialization is responsible（负有责任的）."We don't understand what causea warm and cold circle to appear on this earth-there are always theories but no one can explain why ,"said meteorologist James Murakami.

One theory,advanced by some meteorologists,is that the chemistry of the sun has changed slightly and it is getting hotter ,which could explain some of the warming over the past century.

Clinton is proposing to get every major city around the world to make an effort to limit carbon dioxide emissions,and he is feeling pretty hopefulabout the success.

But a challenge(挑战）that still remains is finding scientific evidence that carbon dioxide emissions are the only source of the problem."As much as there is enough evidence of global warming ,I cannot say that it is unquestionable,"Murakami said."You can't say undoubtedly what we are experiencing in this century is noy natural."

56.What causes global warming,according to some meteorologists?

A.Carbon dioxide emissions

B.Human industrialization

C.Changes in the chemistry of the sun

D.Warm and cold circles of the earth.

57.What is Clinton's attitude towards the possible result of an effort to limit gas emissions?

A.Positive B.Realistic C.Doubtful D.Enocouraging

58.Why is Clinton's proposal faced with a challenge?

A.The effort costs too much money

B.Some major cities show little interest

C.Global warming may be a natural process

D.There are technical problems in Clinton plan

59.What would be a good title for the text?

A.How can we prevent global warming?

B.What can we do with the waste gas?

C.How will the global climate change?

D.What is causing global warming?

Often when two people are introduced, they start a conversation by asking about each other's jobs.For six years,my answer to that question produced raised eyebrows and caused my new friends to say,"You could't pay me enough to do that job!”Then I would explain that driving a school bus had rewards(报酬）other than the usual money.Achieving control of the school bus was an arduous task.I had to learn to check all oil and gas levels,and make sure that all warning buzzers were working.The most difficult task was backing the bus ,thirty-eight feet long,from a narrow country road into a still narrower driveway.Yet I get great satisfaction from konwing the children on the bus were safe because it was in top running condition,and I was confidently in control.

The children ,however,were my constant source(持续的来源）of delight.The younger ones were always eager to share their worries with me .Ibecome a doll fashion advisor and new clothes admirer.Grade cards were presented for approval;and occasionally,love notes were dropped secretly to my knees by red-faced little boys.

Older students generally remained cool until anxiety brought them to me .seeking advice about datibf or dealing with unreasonable parents.And I worried over their safety each weekend when carloads of teenagers jammed the downtown square.Although I do not have any children of my own,I have loved several hundred boys and girls who made me a part of their life.

If,like my new friends,I had considered only the hard work in my job ,then I wouldn't have been a school bus driver.Of course ,I received money ,but my real rewards were the physical discipline of driving,and the trusting love of the children.

60.When the friends said “You couldn't pay me enough to do that job!”（Para.1).they probably mean that______

Here in the world's richest country.we often confuse(混淆）material things for love.“I give him everything,”a frustrated mother complanins,“New shoes, video games,his own TV.You'd think he'd at least show me respect!”

Of course,love and consumer goods are related.Most parents work hard to esrn money .They want their children to have more than they did.

The problem is ,most childreb don't connect the things parents buy with the labor that paysfor them.Children have more ,but our culture-and television in particular-teaches them that more is never enough.Having more does not guarantee（保证）that a child feels loved.

Young children see their parents as all-powerful.If parents fail to provide what they want ,it must be a matter of choice .It's normal for children,even well into school-age ,not to be able to take another person's point of view .For example,they may not want their parents to work long hours,and not realize that the parent wouldalso rather have more time at home .As hard as these issues are all year round,they're even harder during the holidays.For many children ,Christmas is all about the presents.It's easy for the religious meaning to be lost in the wrapping paper.At the same bigger presents.

Instead ,we have to find other ways to express love and create memories.Reading or telling stories together,making music ,playing games,are all ways for families to spend time without spending money.Traditions like caroling ,poem reading,even snowball fighting ,all serve the same purpose.Most important,as parents,we have to learn to hold back some energy from our jobs.When we're present for our children we ourselves become the presents we want to give.

68.Many parents buy their children a lot of material things because_________.

A.they earn money in the world's richest country

B.they need love from their children

C.they want to show their love through the goods

D.they try to improve the relationship with children

69.What can we learn about children from the text?

A.They desires expand with what they get.

B.They know love and goods are connected

C.They think their parents love workmore

D.They spend much time watching TV for their parents are busy.

70.Why does the author say the issues are harder during the holiday?

A.Because family reunion couldn't be replaced by presents at that time.

B.Because parents couldn't find more time to say at home.

C.Because it's difficult to find parents with religious meaning.

D.Because children demand new ways to celebrate Christmas.

71.Which of the following statements will the author most likely agree with?

A.It is necessary for children to work part time after school.

B.It is important for children to go to church in christmas.

C.It is important for parents to set aside some time to stay with they children.

D.It pays for children to learn more about christmas tradition.
